20 Things You Should Know About Rabastan Lestrange (the FL version!)
1. Though Rab was a planned child, he was neglected once he was born. He was only the Lestrange’s contingency plan, and they treated him as though he were a nuisance relation. He never went without, though, except when it came to their love.
2. When Rab was still quite small, he constantly sought his parents’ affections with no luck, finally realizing that they were only interested in their eldest son. So he focused his affections on Ro as well. They were returned gladly. Rab often curled up in his brother’s lap while he did his studies, despite their mother’s admonitions that Ro not allow it. Their father said it harmed no one, and so Rab was allowed to stay.
3. Rab’s favorite thing when he was small (aside from his big brother) was a huge bunny Ro bought for him that was about half his size. He dragged it everywhere with him, and his mother hated it. She threw it out several times, and each time, Ro brought it back to his baby brother, the last time going to tell her off for doing it. It didn’t stop her from making sure it was permanently thrown away Ro’s first month at Hogwarts, so that it was too late for him to retrieve it when he returned. Rab cried for months after.
4. When Rab got on his mother’s nerves for having nothing to do while Ro was at school, she hired a violin teacher and insisted he take lessons three times a week, just so he would be out of her hair. Rab hated doing it, and his fingers constantly hurt at first, but when Ro was home he kissed them better, and listened happily while Rab tried to play for him. He still plays even now. Far better, of course, with the constant practice. But he still hates his mother for forcing it on him.
5. Ro was his only playmate until he was five, when Ro began to attend Hogwarts, and their mother began allowing his cousins to come visit for the day every so often. Never too long, of course. She hated dealing with children. Of course, he never enjoyed spending time with them so much as with his brother.
6. Rab’s first spell was taught to him by Ro, of course. Their father had just taught Ro about the Unforgivables, and so he had to show his little brother. Rab managed to (somewhat successfully) use the Imperious on a fly with his brother’s wand, and made it zoom at them.
7. One of Rab’s fondest memories is riding to Hogwarts that first time, and being sorted into his brother’s house. He had a fit, though, when Ro wouldn’t let him sleep in his dorm room.
8. That summer, angry at his brother because he’d realized they would only have the one year at school together, Rab confronted his brother. Somehow, the two ended up entangled on Ro’s bed. It was Rab’s first time. He never looked back. Ro is still his favourite lover. Ro is also the only one he allows to top him.
9. After Ro left Hogwarts, Rab let himself explore, first with older boys that he could manipulate, then later with his year-mates, and finally with younger. None of them meant anything to him. His favorite way to torture his brother during this time period was to suggest he was sleeping with Lucius Malfoy. Lucius and Ro competed for a great many things, and Ro hated the idea that he would have to share his brother with him as well. It was never true, though. Rab thought Lucius was a complete popinjay, and would never have let the young man touch him.
10. At this time, he also took one Severus Snape under his wing, who became his pet. He and Ro are both exceedingly protective of Severus after what they found out about him during their last few years at school.
11. In the fall of Rab’s sixth year, Ro announced his engagement to Bella. Rab went into a funk and took it out on a few of the younger students in Slytherin. Including Regulus Black. It was his way of getting a bit of his own back from the Black family. And Regulus was an easy target, given his older brother’s disownment the previous summer.
12. Rab was his brother’s best man in his wedding. He was able to smile through the wedding because he’d managed to seduce his brother that morning.
13. Their parents died two months after Ro’s wedding. Rab never missed them.
14. After he left Hogwarts, he moved in with Ro and Bella. The two barely tolerated each other. Finally, Ro insisted that Rab find his own place before they killed each other.
15. Rab only got the Mark because Ro had one already, and Ro was still the centre of his world.
16. Rab's first kill wasn't with his wand. It was with an antique knife that had been passed down in their family to second sons. It is the one gift of his family's that he truly loves. Aside from his brother.
17. Though Rab hated Bella, he found himself surprisingly drawn to his nephew after his birth. Perhaps because the boy looked so very much like his brother. As soon as they were allowed journals in Azkaban, he began sending messages to his nephew through his.
18. In the end, he was only captured by the Aurors because he refused to let his brother go with Bella to torture the Longbottoms alone. He was sure if they were caught, she would give up his brother to get away, and he wasn’t about to let that happen.
19. Their time in Azkaban drained many memories of their early life together. The one he misses the most is the morning before Ro’s wedding. He remembers the sense of amusement and triumph each time he saw Bella that day, but not why.
20. Rab was injured in the flight from Azkaban. His arm was caught in a combination of spells that left him burning with little way to put the fire out. He now has scars along his right arm, and across his chest and shoulder there. He's healing, but it's a slow process. And Rab isn't a patient man.
